Success Stories

Kathy Russell-Babin
VP for Professional Practice at Inova Health System

In the last year, Inova has seen recruitment increase dramatically to around 850 new grads a year. We’re also seeing reduced turnover at about 2-3% year over year. StaffGarden Grow is one great big package about what the nurse feels that Inova is doing to make it worth their while to stay with us.

Barbra Turner
Director of Nursing Practice and Education, Bon Secours Mercy Health

My initial thoughts on StaffGarden? This is the one. I saw it and instantly fell in love with the cloud-based system, accessibility from nurses' devices, and customizability.

Lori Michel
Clinical Coordinator for Nursing Services, Peterson Health

We have the ability to see at a glance how many nurses are leveling, applying, which nurses have BSNs, certifications, et cetera using the ePortfolio and resume functions within StaffGarden. This data is useful for Magnet reporting since we’re able to show an increase in BSNs, certifications, and points to encourage nurses to fulfill Magnet criteria right on the webpage.

Director of Education, Mission Hospital, Mission Viejo and Laguna Beach

I am thankful to not have to lug around many clinical ladder binders anymore. I would highly recommend StaffGarden for implementation of an electronic format for hospitals clinical ladder program; great team, great product.
